I accidently discovered this one last night, though I have to do more testing, it may have been a coincedence. basically, I used more blankets than normal, and got a DILD. naturally im calling this Heat Induced Lucid Dream
To be honest I doubt that this is much of a technique. Your saying that by using more blankets you’ll get more LDs? I mean if you want past that and said ‘well…the heat made it difficult for me to drift to sleep quickly, so I was in a HI stage and then entered the dream’ I would have considered what your saying to be a technique.
HILD is just like saying that by using more pillows you’ll get more nightmares.
It could possibly be something to it. But i think some more testing is necessary to determine if it is consistant.
I encountered a DILD because I dreamt of a hot summer day, and realised it felt way too hot. not really much diffrent than say colour induced
Interesting. This seems pretty similar to those that say “You get LD’s by sleeping on your back” Or something similar.
The idea behind it being that you’ll be uncomfortable in some way, and thus in your dreams you’ll be uncomfortable in the same way. This will make you realize you’re dreaming.
It works for some people, sometimes, but I wouldn’t say it’s consistent nor reliable.
If it works for you, then great! Good for you.
I have in the past had dreams of being really hot, then I woke up and had little blankets on and was freezing (and vice versa) , so it certainly doesn’t work for me.
HILD has already been taken anyway.
